Solve:
\n" ); document.write( " $\"-4%2F5x+%3E+-8\"$ Multiply both sides by 5x
\n" ); document.write( " $\"-4+%3E+-8%285x%29\"$ Perform the indicated mu;tiplication on the right side.
\n" ); document.write( " $\"-4+%3E+-40x\"$ Finally, divide both sides by -40...don't forget to reverse the order of the > sign!
\n" ); document.write( " $\"1%2F10+%3C+x\"$ or $\"x+%3E+1%2F10\"$ \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Or is the problem:
\n" ); document.write( " $\"%28-4%2F5%29x+%3E+-8\"$ ? If it is, then you multiply both sides by the multiplicative inverse of $\"%28-4%2F5%29\"$ which is $\"%28-5%2F4%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"%28-5%2F4%29%28-4%2F5%29x+%3E+%28-5%2F4%29%28-8%29\"$ Simplifying this, you get:
\n" ); document.write( " $\"x+%3C+10\"$ \n" ); document.write( "

\n" );
